rain like going in the little store at one of the corners in buying a bag of chips and a banana. I I killed some time just inside the door looking to see if the 48 bus is coming. There's one scheduled for 9:46 PM. Google maps does not indicate that coming anytime soon. 
Really nasty out there and it's now almost 10 o'clock. 48 finally showed up.  Well I got home with my wet sneekers and socks. Time to get the shut eye

A good time was had by all. Greg sent me a link on how Steely Dan wrote Deacon Blues from the 1977 Album Aja. This is a timeless record I will be listening to until I can not hear anything! I first got into it in the Summer of 1978. If there were a movie about me and/or my life then this record would be its soundtrack. I would dare say it was my "coming of age" Summer.

Tuesday, February 3: A Day to Be Single

A COLD  Morning
Good day. I did manage to wake up feeling somewhat normal today. are you at the sunrise and talk to someone after the meeting I never really hung out with before. It was nice. While taking
A Good Morning
a break
Sunrise
at work I read some articles on the Internet.. As you know you can go from like the Lincoln never know
Market Street
where you might end up. I started to read this article 

and this was quite well written.
Love This Steely Dan!!
It was nice to take a break from reality. It is now 1:11 PM. It is a sunny yet chilly day with a light wind. I'm
La Colombe Coffee

OCF Coffee House

On Tinder?????
you can get at times:
"I'm sorry, I am not sure I communicated clearly on Sunday. I am not really interested in chatting
on the phone etc. I think you are a nice person, but all of this contact is more than I have even with my
Fairmount
closest friends. Please let's. give it a rest. Wishing you well."
Life goes on. Anyhow
OCF Coffeehouse
I'm going to edit the blog and then walk back home. All good things take time. And that's what I have. 
I'm going back to my friends house to help him with his taxes and eat some dinner late. I'm going from

Sitting Along

inspirational or cynical I can write. I am just looking  though Facebook and listening to Pat Snooring. I am now listening to Monica Lewinsky speak out about her experience. Its very bizarre thing to see. It is very uncomfortable to look at. She has this funky smile. She spoke at a Forbes under 30 Summet. She was 24 years old.
